eibach/agx suspension

When I got my eibach/tokiko setup a yr ago, it seemed most agreed it was a great setup. Handling was phenomenal, but ride is rough, and now I blew a rear shock. I want better ride quality. Should I keep my eibachs and change to AGX struts/shocks or will I also need to change springs to something like maxsprings? Any suggestions?

Hey dude, just keep your springs man. Eibach is a quality spring. GR2's are recommended with Eibachs, according to KYB. So if you blow a GR2 with your eibachs, its under warranty.

im pretty sure the ride is bad because your stock shocks are gone... stay with eibach and get some good shocks

Thanks for the feedback, my ride was a bit too rough for me before my shock blew, but much worse now. Its a tough decision, if they have another $85 maxspring sale, I'll be tempted to get them for the better ride - and sell my eibachs and 3tokiko + 1 new if they replace it for free. (new kuhmo 712s 225/55/16 Ws on the way)
